Mexican food place that’s friendly with a good set of menu items. Fajitas were very good. Veggie bowl was tasty. My tacos really didn’t have much taste but were fine. Limeade was ordered by many and was too sweet and lacking lime flavor. Lime wedges appeared quickly on request. Margaritas were tasty. Allergens are an issue here with much cross-contamination. BUT, they know about it. Expect limited choices if this applies to you. I did have to ask about each item regarding gluten, and they did not volunteer glutenfree options. This was likely because they were busy and not used to or trained on working with diners with restrictions. I would go back but only at a time that wasn’t too busy so I could ask about items. They have salsas that look interesting, too. A gluten-free fryer for chips and marking menu items as GF would go a long way here. I’m sure those with dairy, egg, and other allergies would feel similarly.

the food was sooo good. i was able to eat a enchilada despite being gluten free because they used corn tortillas and it was amazing. the service was really great as well, we had Toni and she was really nice. definitely recommend this place (notes to the restaurant from a server:, pls polish/check silverware when rolling,,, iykyk)

I have celiac disease and coming here was a great experience for me. They were able to make gluten free adaptations of most of the menu without extra charge. In addition, the waiter (Chris) not only completely understood about cross contamination and the implications of gluten, but he was also super nice and attentive!! I highly recommend this place!
